Having problems with your Acer Aspire One Netbook 8.9" Notebook ?

My acer aspire one takes too long to boot up.

\015 My laptop is taking too long to boot up lately, and the amount of time it takes is ridiculously long. I try system restore, it would give me a restore incompletle error message. I tried configurating the start up so that only the things that I need will start when I turn on the computer. \015\012\015\012 Nothing has work. I have defragmented it, clean my registries, unisntall the very few programs I have. I checked my driver c and I have 131 G of free space. I don't know what to do. I ran my avg anti-virus and it says my computer is clean. I've search the internet for every single possible cause and I have tried everything I've come across about the subject but nothing seams to work. \015\012\015\012 And the curious thing is that once it is on, internet browsing is decent, it lags a bit, specially when whatching videous or playing music. I don't think the problem is hardware related, when I start it on "Safe Mode" it start up at a normal speed. Can somebody help me please? I can't keep waiting almost 8 min. to stat my laptop, it's driving me crazy!!!\015

Answers :

Try to check the running processes on normal start up using task manager, monitor what program eats a lot of resources. And compare that on safe mode boot running processes.

You might want to try malwarebytes antimalware. But I don't know if it conflicts with AVG.

Check your programs and features in the control panel sounds as if you may have programs installed twice. That will slow computer to a very slow start up. If everything else is done correctly, but what error message or what happens when you restore system to earlier date.

I have an ACER notebook Aspire 4920 and, I think, because an update I installed (prompted I may add by my laptop!) it is now not working. When I turn it on it goes into Startup Repair mode and then tells me it can't fix the problem automatically. It then gives me the options to either: System Restore (not actually an option as when I go on it it tells me I can't do this!), Windows Complete PC restore (which i can't do as have no Backup), Windows Memory restore, or command prompt. Please help as

If you can indeed boot into a command prompt, type "help" without the quotes and you have a list of all commands you can run from the command console.I would run this command before anything else:CHKDSK You may be familiar wit ...
